Jewelry Dog Moms Will Love: Lolamina Designs

The saying goes “diamonds are a girls best friend” but for many of us, our pups hold the title of B.F.F. and nothing can top that. What if there was a brand that combined both our love for all things shiny and beautiful with our love of our furry friends? Well, Lolamina Designs has entered the chat. Lolamina Designs was found by a mother and daughter who are fellow dogtroverts with a purpose. Each piece they design supports a cause and portions of each sale go back to that cause. I am all for supporting animal causes and their jewelry is a perfect gift for the animal lovers in your life this holiday season.

How precious is this Lolamina Designs necklace? Teddy’s tag is by Kissy Fish Design.

I learned about Lolamina through Instagram. Our friends Britany and Ollie (@mr.ollie.brown) were organizing an auction for our sweet and adorable friend Gizmo (@gizmo_teddybear), who recently had IVDD surgery. When I saw the photo of their “Charlotte Ribbon” necklace, I had to have one.

Although I was outbid during the auction, I decided to order one as a Christmas gift. When the necklace arrived, I had to open it to take a peak and I was so happy with how the necklace looks in person. It is so beautiful! The gold chain and the stone really sparkle. There’s an added touch of two little paw prints around the clasp. This is the perfect gift for a dog mom. Lolamina’s jewelry is dainty and perfect for everyday wear. If you have a dog mom in their life, I really think they would love a piece from Lolamina Designs, whether it is a gift from you or their furry B.F.F.

I had the chance to ask the human behind Lolamina Designs a few questions! Keep reading to learn more about the brand and what inspired this mother/daughter duo to found this amazing business!

What inspired you to start Lolamina?  If it was inspired by your pups, tell us about them!

Lolamina was created by my mom and I because we wanted to help animals.  We’re huge dog lovers, we have 4 – and we were definitely inspired by them!  

Lola is our toy poodle, she’s 15 and runs the house.  Then we have Mina, my husky.  She loves to nap, eat, and howl – truly the laziest husky I’ve ever seen.  Clarabelle is our third furbaby, she’s a standard poodle and has so much energy.  She’s always trying to chase Mina around!  And last but not least is Charlie.  She’s a little white poodle mix, we got her from Ruff House Rescue – which is why we wanted to design a piece for them.  She came from a very bad situation.

Before Ruff House saved her, she was abused, hit by a car, put in a kill shelter, and found with giant ticks covering her body. I am so grateful to them for saving her life.  I’m so happy that we’re her forever family, and I’m beyond honored to be one of the people she’s opened up to.  I want her to have the most beautiful life – I want all dogs to have that.

Meet the pups behind Lolamina Designs:

What is your favorite item to make and why?

 My favorite item to make was Mina’s North Star.  I’ve always loved huskies, and after I brought Mina home I was made aware of the huge problem happening in rescues right now.  Huskies are gorgeous, so a lot of people get them without researching all of the special care they require and then they dump them in shelters.  It’s horrible.  So I was excited to work with Northern Exposure Siberian Husky Rescue and design a piece just for them.

Tell us about your brand’s mission.

 Our mission is simple – we want to help them all.  We look at our dogs, how sweet and purely good they are.  Every dog is just that – pure goodness.  And there are so many, just like ours, suffering and without a home.  We want to save them all.  

What would you like everyone to know about Lolamina?

 I want people to know that we will do as much as we can for animals.  We’re devoted to dogs in the same way they’re devoted to us.  We’re a small business but our dream is to expand and, one day, make a huge difference.
